The last time i had a major session on Gin with bitter lemon was in Ibiza circa 1985 in a night club, i was on my hands and knees trying to find the way out, i eventually did but could not remember what the girl i pulled looked like so decided to go back to the hotel alone, then found a mate sobered up a bit and then had a fight on the beach with a spanish bloke who took offence to my face when i could eventually walk properly again.
so i try to steer away from gin in volume nowdays
